Judge: Michael Small, Case: 24STCV08770, Date: 2024-08-26 Tentative Ruling
Case Number: 24STCV08770 Hearing Date: August 26, 2024 Dept: 57
Plaintiff's demurrer to the Defendants' answer is sustained with leave to amend on two grounds.
First, all of the affirmative defenses in the answer are uncertain because they fail to identify the cause(s) of action to which they relate.
Second, the fourth, fourteenth, and twenty-second affirmative defenses refer to a "contract" but fail to state whether the contract is written, oral, or implied by conduct.
Defendants are directed to file and serve an amended answer by September 9, 2024.
